Just a thought-a lot of earth moving equipment used cable winches to raise and lower buckets, blade, gannons, etc.Quote:

I have a Yanmar YM165 somewhat smaller than this one, but there is enough "hydraulics" to put a small ram in place of the turn buckle which would give a limited amount of tilt.Quote:

I used one a lot as a kid to dig stock ponds with. Pushing to fill is not the best way to use them, even without tilt they have a tendency to try and dig in too deep. Optimally you want the bucket nearly level to the ground and just scrape very shallow cuts. If they are made right there will be a secondary top link with a latch that allows the cutting edge of the scoop to make the cut then unlatch the secondary link when raising and it will tilt back some to hold the material in. once you get where you are going release the dump latch
